Right, and they can still contact apple support via chat or call to add apple care if they are within 1 year in the US. In this case the phone must be functional and connect to either a WiFi network or a cellular plan so they (apple) can run basic diagnostics. This is an option as there are not apple stores in a handful of US states and territories. My best guess is that they do ask the consumer if there is physical damage & it’s up to the consumer to either be truthful or lie. Im sure lying somehow breaks the TOC for applecare+ if apple were to find out.

Yes, but they need to physically inspect it in a store after 60 days. Not a OTA diagnosis. An actual physical inspection to check for any damage.

I tried asking them once, and they acted like they didn’t know what I was talking about. They said it’s only within the 60 days.
